An eight storey building under construction in Deira, Dubai has collapsed destroying more than 10 cars, it was reported today.

I left our office today at around 5 pm  so I can arrive Sharjah early to pay our SEWA bills. First, I thought there was just a car accident ahead of me. I was already near airport road when I heard on the radio that there was a 8-storey building collapsed in Ittihad road. I was upset after hearing that news but luckily I arrived Sharjah early. But when I reached home, I googled it and found out that it was in Al Quds St. cor. Salahuddin Rd. near Ramada hotel. The building was a B +G+ 6 commercial and residential building designed in Steel beams and columns.

One passer by has uploaded these  videos of the said collapsed building.
